    Well said and a good reminder for all of us who love classic, tailored style. We need to occasionally step back take an objective look to avoid falling into what I call the “mumsy” trap! Thanks for this post!

  2. Hi, Beth,
    Love your advice–and the fact that you are currently living in a hot humid climate and always include advice for making a classic wardrobe less formal. I’m here in South Florida where the dressing and climate is (ahem) different.
    Can you discuss prints? I’m a monochromatic fan, but that’s getting old. I’m 68 so I don’t want to look too silly. Thanks, Anne

    You look gorgeous! Your advice regarding classic pieces with pops of color is spot on. I too, love a pointed toe flat!

    Hi Beth
    Yet another helpful post! You’re the female Ralph Lauren. Awesome.

    You’re right about the hair. My choices are limited due to my thick, wavy hair and multiple whorls to make it fun. When I ask for a short pixie cut, stylists do not want to cut it that way. I convinced one to take it super short, my eight-week pandemic lockdown haircut. Compliments galore from people I know and barely know! It might take some convincing because stylists don’t see women of a certain age in certain hairstyles. My next excuse will be, “I’ll be travelling, so I don’t know when I’ll get my hair cut next.” I won’t be travelling, but short hair suits me. So what if I have a few smile lines around my eyes, and people notice them?
